"NON EST ASYLUM"

John Constantine is a man waging war against the forces of darkness -- from both within himself and the outside world. An irreverent, working-class con man and occult expert, he's an experienced exorcist and demonologist with an extensive list of supernatural contacts, with their own paranormal talents and abilities. Following the aftermath of a tragic incident, Constantine has voluntarily checked himself into an asylum and sworn off investigating matters of the supernatural. But when a cryptic message calls him out to reluctantly resume his old life, he finds himself saving the life of a young woman, Liv, whom he's never met -- but is connected to in a very important way. For Liv is something of a human compass for dark forces -- able to locate and see the supernatural world that the rest of us cannot. With these forces gathering power in the world, Constantine and Liv ally themselves with Manny, a rogue warrior angel, and Chas, Constantine's giant childhood protector -- the only friend who's managed to stay alive. Based upon characters published by DC Entertainment and executive produced by Daniel Cerone (The Mentalist) and David S. Goyer (Man of Steel, The Dark Knight films), CONSTANTINE reflects the lore of the fan-favorite comic, combining noirish storytelling with the evolving mythology of John Constantine, a morally challenged character who doesn't come down on the side of either good or evil ... but ultimately might be the only thing defending us against the dark forces from beyond.

Based on the wildly popular comic book series "Hellblazer" from DC Comics, seasoned demon hunter and master of the occult John Constantine specializes in giving hell... hell. Armed with a ferocious knowledge of the dark arts and his wickedly naughty wit, he fights the good fight - or at least he did. With his soul already damned to hell, he's decided to leave his do-gooder life behind. But when demons target Liv, the daughter of one of Constantine's oldest friends, he's reluctantly thrust back into the fray - and he'll do whatever it takes to save her. Before long, it's revealed that Liv's "second sight," an ability to see the worlds behind our world and predict supernatural occurrences, is a threat to a mysterious new evil that's rising in the shadows. And now it's not just Liv who needs protection; the angels are starting to get worried too. So, together, Constantine and Liv must use her power and his skills to travel the country, find the demons that threaten our world - and send them back where they belong. After that, who knows... maybe there's hope for him and his soul after all.

I am really looking forward to this show. It's my most anticipated tv show based on comic books.

Nice use of Latin. I'm looking forward to seeing how this show does.

EhMaybeSays - 10/3/2014, 4:52 AM

First episode was average. This series looks like it'll depend on the Matt Ryan's witty remarks to carry it.

Desrow - 10/3/2014, 5:02 AM

Is that Goyer??

I know he's the executive-producer.

This feels like it could be connected to the DC Movieverse.

xstartripper - 10/3/2014, 10:08 AM

@fettastic He does smoke in the show, just off-camera. You can see him putting out a cigarette in the pilot and he's always playing with a lighter.

Batman52 - 10/3/2014, 10:23 AM

@Zordan without any spoilers how was Gone Girl?
